Defend with Goopy

Goopy

Enchantment
This card gains Exhaust. When played, permanently increase this card's Block by 1.

Goopy fits only cards with the Defend tag: the five basic Defends and Ultimate Defend.

  • Mechanic: it adds Exhaust, and each play raises the enchantment's counter by one on the combat copy and the deck copy alike; the Block bonus is the counter minus one.
  • Source: Pael's Claw is the only one, an Ancient relic Pael offers in the Hive when at least three of your cards qualify.
  • Stamped at 1: it stamps every Defend in your deck at counter 1, so the first play adds nothing, the second adds 1, the third 2, and so on.
  • Net effect: since the card exhausts, each Defend grows once per combat, and your Defends now leave your hand each fight.

Best cards to enchant

Build around the Exhaust rather than the growth. Feel No Pain pays 3 Block every time a Goopy Defend exhausts. Dark Embrace draws a card per exhausted Defend. Ashen Strike and Pact's End count the exhaust pile the Defends fill. Forgotten Ritual wants a card exhausted this turn. Ultimate Defend is the best carrier: it starts at 11 Block and grows like the basics.
